Strokes have affected both sides of our family and we would like to take part in the challenge of walking the virtual London Marathon to a support the stroke association charity which does amazing work..

When stroke strikes, part of your brain shuts down. And so does a part of you. Life changes instantly and recovery is tough. But the brain can adapt. Our specialist support, research and campaigning are only possible with the courage and determination of the stroke community.

I'm taking on the Stroke Association's Walk Your Marathon challenge and raising vital funds to rebuild lives after stroke.
